2012 Volkswagen Golf 1.6L Diesel · FV62 YHS

The Volkswagen Golf has a stable maintenance trend, with all tests passing since February 2022, including the most recent April 2025 test at 94,146 miles. The vehicle has not been flagged for any defects, advisories, or advisories, suggesting consistent upkeep and no major mechanical issues. The only notable event was a failed test in April 2025 at the same mileage, which was later corrected without defects recorded. This indicates a minor administrative oversight rather than a mechanical problem. The mileage pattern is typical for a vehicle of this age. The Golf has been tested every year since February 2022, with a steady increase in mileage each year, averaging around 5,000 miles annually. The most recent test in April 2025 shows a slight increase from the February 2024 test, but this is well within the expected range for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps or rapid mileage accumulation, suggesting consistent use without periods of inactivity or heavy use. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for any signs of wear on consumables like tyres, wiper blades, and brake pads, as these are not typically flagged in MOT tests. The Golf's suspension and drivetrain components appear to be in good condition, with no recurring advisories or defects noted in the MOT history. However, the buyer should also check for any signs of structural rust or corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches and undercarriage, as these areas are prone to moisture and can affect the vehicle's long-term roadworthiness.
